Tell us about your worst investment... and the lesson you learned from it.

Hahahaha. Small numbers: NXT. Worst because I pulled it out of HOF after confusing myself over 'research' on HOF. Bought on froth. Still hold to punish myself.<BR><BR>Not at all impressed with property prices. Even when I bought in late '98. Am exasperated at current 'valuation'.

The Fool:

What's the best restaurant you've ever been to? (Include name, location, and average bill for two.)

JamesFax:

Rick Stein's in Padstow. Best as in probably the 'classiest' or 'extreme-dining'. Food was definitely beyond good, almost surrealy-different. Great environment. Padstow is, unfortunately, more like a fun-fare now, almost circus-like in it's commercialism -- often dubbed "PadStein" since there are fewer and fewer shops indepedent of or unbranded by the Stein-Empire. Lunch with the best (taste sensation) desert in the world: One hundrend and twenty for two (Sept 2003) inc. 1 bottle house white, three courses. Offers include "tasting menu".
